(B) 4 and 5

4 and 5 are consecutive numbers and when you add both of them (sum) you get 9.

Once you get 9, it says 1/3 of the sum of the two consecutive numbers.

So we would do 9 divided by 3 which then we would get 3.

It also says the number is one less than the smaller number (which is 4 in this case as 4 is smaller than 5).

3 is one number smaller than 4 and is therefore the answer.

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Q=\frac{\pi}{2}*55.5ft=87.18ft\\P=87.18ft*\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{16}{\pi ^{2}}}=87.18*0.9515=82.95ft\\

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a 4-sided triangular pyramid , where

Q=\frac{\pi}{2}*H\\P=Q*\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{4}{\pi ^{2}}}\\Q=\frac{\pi}{2}*55.5ft=87.18ft\\P=87.18ft*\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{16}{\pi ^{2}}}=87.18*0.9515=82.95ft\\

Kyndal wants to buy a lamp that
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

$39.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Since its 20% off that means we still have a remaining 80% so first multiply 0.8 to the 82

82x0.8= 65.6

Since there is a additional 40% off multiply by 0.4 to get the discount amount

65.6x0.4= 26.24

Subtract the discount from the price

65.6-26.24= 39.36
